NGTV Guide: Wednesday, November 5

At last, a new episode of Bones!

Pushing Daisies – ABC 8/7c
“Oh Oh Oh… It’s Magic” – Ned reluctantly agrees to help “The Great Herrmann” (guest star Fred Willard), a famed magician whose animal assistants are being mysteriously killed off. The magician has been a surrogate dad to Ned’s half-brothers Maurice and Ralston (Alex Miller, Graham Miller) ever since their father walked out on them. Meanwhile, Dwight Dixon (guest star Stephen Root) insinuates himself into the Aunts’ lives, but Lily is instantly suspicious of his motives.

Oops, my TV listings tricked me – no new Pushing Daisies tonight!

Bones – Fox 8/7c
“The Skull in the Sculpture” – When the smashed remains of a well known artist are found in an impounded junkyard car, Booth and Brennan are on the case to find out if foul play is to blame for his death. With suspects ranging from the artist’s rival to his own assistant, the team must race against the clock to find evidence of murder before the car is relinquished and put on exhibit as the sculptor’s ultimate display of self-sacrifice for the sake of his art. Meanwhile, Angela’s ex-girlfriend Roxie, who worked with the artist, becomes a suspect in the case, and Angela and the team must find out who delivered the final stroke in his artfully crafted death.
